University of Guelph Athletics

Katie McNally, a third-year general arts student from Guelph, Ont. helped the Gryphons move to an undefeated 3-0 record on the weekend following a 54-3 victory over the Waterloo Warriors. If it wasn't for the phenomenal work rate of this fullback, the Gryphons could’ve had a disastrous weekend. Struggling to adapt to the referee, Guelph was unable to retain possession for more than 2-to-3 phases, which kept them off the scoreboard for the first 20 minutes of the game. Her poise fielding kicks, returning the Gryphons to great field position and stellar rucking technique helped keep the Warriors off the scoreboard. She also added a try of her own in the second half with a beautiful give-and-go support run with teammate Britt Benn.  McNally has been exceptionally consistent all season.
